Q

How do you clear an immune complex?

A

The C3b/C4b found on immune complexes will bind CR1 on RBCs and be taken to the liver or spleen to be cleared.

Q

So once a immune complex deposits in between endothelial cells and anaphylatoxin (C5a and C3a) are activatd what happens next?

A

neutrophils are recruited to the site and bind immune complexes by their Fc receptors and become activated. The neutrophils attempt to phagocytize the complex but cant so they release a bunch of granules, inflammatory mediators, and enzymes to cause tissue destruction.

25
Patients with post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis present with what 2 things?
hematuria and proteinuria
26
WHen you see a lumpy bumpy glomerulus, what should you be thinking?
deposition of complement
27
How can you induce the arthus reaction?
locally inject antigen in an immune individual w/ lots of pre-existing IgG antibody to the antigen-> local immune complex formation-> activation of FcgammaR3 on mast cells induces their degranulation-> local inflammation, increased fluid and protein release, phagocytosis and blood vessel occlusion
28
Local injection of antigen in individuals with high levels of pre-existing antibodies can cause the (blank) reaction
arthus reaction
29
FCepsionRI receptors on mast cells, basophils, activated eosinophils have this receptor to do what?
to release their stuff in response to IgE!!!!
30
FCgammaRIII receptors on mast cells respond to what and do what?
IgG immune complexes and degranulate
31
(blank) form in the setting of high local concentration of vaccine antigens and high circulating antibody concentrations.
immune complexes
32
A local vasculitis is associated with deposition of (blank) and (blank)
immune complexes and complement activation
33
What are these symptoms of: | severe pain, swelling, induration, edema, hemorrhage, and occasionally necrosis.
arthrus reaction
34
when does an arthrus reaction typically occur after a vaccine?
4-12 hours after vaccination
35
What is the mechanism behind penicillin-induced serum sickness?
the chemically reactive penicilloyl moiety binds to self proteins and induces an antibody response, IgG anti-peniciliin antibodies form immune complexes with penicilin-> complement activation releases C3a which causes hitamine release from mast cell and urticaria (hives).
36
What is extrinsic allergic alveolitis (hypersensitivity pneumonitis)?
immune complexes with inhaled fungal antigens (farmer's lung-bird fancier's disease)
37
What involves the development of IgG antibodies to inhaled mold that form immune complexes?
Extrinsic allergic alveoitis
38
Why are immune complexes so sucky?
because they fix complement and release anaphylatoxns causes local inflammation.
39
Acute exacerbations of extrinsc allergic alveolitis can be treated by what?
corticosteroids
40
What is type IV hypersensitivity (delayed type hypersensitivity) caused by?
Th17 cells, Th1 cells, Th2 cells
41
The Th1 delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) response is orchestrated by (blank) produced by macrophages; T cells make IFN-gamma that further activates (blank)
IL-12 | macrophages
42
The TH17 delayed hypersensitivity reaction is driven by (blank) and (blank) produced by macrophages. T cells make (blank) and (blank) that recruit and activate neutrophils
IL-23 and TGF-beta | IL-17 and IL-22
43
WHat does IL-17 and IL-22 do?
recruit and activate neutrophils
44
What is the TH17 DHT reaction driven by?
IL-23 and TGF-beta
45
The (blank) response involves cytoxocity and is a component of several autoimmune diseases like Type I diabetes
CD8 DTH response
46
CD8 makes what cytokine?
IFN-gamma
47
So describe the whole type IV hypersensitivity (delayed type hypersensitivity) response?
IL-12 released from macrophages makes Th1 which releases IFN gamma and TNG that further activates macrophages THEN IL-23 and TGF-beta produced by macrphages triggers T cells to make IL-17 and IL-22 that recruit and activates neutrophils THEN CD8s release IFN gamma and kill shit
48
Why do you get the wheel and flare when you get a TB shot?
Antigen is injectin into subcutaneous tissue and the antigen is processed by APCs and then TH1 cells recognized the antigen and release cytokines onto vascular endothelium which will recruit phagocytes and plasma to site of antigen injection and causes visible lesion
49
T cell-mediated reactions are called DTH because they take (blank) hours to mature
24-72 hours
50
What is allergic contact dermitis caused by?
CD4 or CD8 T cells
51
Explain how allergic contact dermatitis is caused
small highly reactive molecules penetrate skins-> create haptens-> haptens are presented by MHC molecules-> Langerhan dendritic cells take up and process antigen, these migrate to lymph nodes and activate T cells.-> The memory T cells migrate to the dermis->Then an approximate exposure triggers memory T cells which release IFN-gamma. IFN-gamma sitmulates keratinocytes to release cytokines and chemokines that enhance inflammatory rsponse by recruiting and activating monocytes
52
In allergic contact dermatitis, what does IFN-gamma stimulate?
Keratinocytes to release cytokine and chemokines
53
In type IV hypersensitivity to a contact sensitiizing agent | Hapten binds self protein in the skin and is pinocytosed by (blank) and are present in (bank) molecules to (blank) cells
dendritic cells MHC class II CD4 T cells
54
In type IV hypersensitivity to a contact sensitiizing agent, previously sensitized (Blank) cells interact with langerhan dendritic cells
T cell
55
In type IV hypersensitivity to a contact sensitiizing agent, (bank) stimulates keratinocyes to make cytokines and chemokines.
IFN-gamma
56
In type IV hypersensitivity to a contact sensitiizing agent, IFN-gamma stimulates keratinocytes to make cytokines and chemokines which wil attract what cels to the site?
mononuclear cells
57
What happens upon second exposure of poison ivy? | How do you treat it?
severe reaction triggered by memory T cells result in contact dermatitis and epidermal blisters with dermal and epidermal mononuclear infiltrates. systemic corticosteroids
58
Explain nickel dermatitis
chemically reactive metals like nickle bind to host proteins and activate T cells-> T cels release IFN-gamma which activate keratinocytes-> active keratinocytes release mediates that cause mononuclear infiltrate of dermis.
59
What kind of hypersensitivity is acrylate and latex?
Type IV hypersensitivity
60
What does IFn gamma really do?
brings in macrophages.
